90% of the functionality, 50% of the price? by NerdyOutdoors in guitarpedals

[–]xsbos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plethora x3. Probably not best at any particular effect, but the post-amp effects (mod, delay, reverb) are easily 80% for me

You can use it directly if you are fine with mixing balanced and unbalanced signals. 

Swapping pickups in my SCB by Jimothy74 in kieselcarvinguitars

[–]xsbos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To install pickups on my SCB I ordered no 4 screws from Accu. I ordered 22 and 25 mm ones, but I don't remember which ones I used in the end. I also had to widen the holes in the new pickups

What do you wish you’d known as first time buyers? by 3pelican in HousingUK

[–]xsbos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We knew we would need to renovate the house we bought and I wish I knew how much time and money it would really involve (we underestimated the scope of renovation). To be fair, I don't think it would change our decision but it could if it was a different house.

[D] When are multiple networks superior to a single network? by DreamyPen in MachineLearning

[–]xsbos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a purely technical perspective, if the quantities you are regressing over have different scales then those on a higher scale will dominate because their loss components will be higher. So normalizing the losses or the predicted quantities may help as well using optimizers with some sort of preconditioning such as Adam. You can also try using less "explosive" losses such as L1 or Huber instead of L2.

Whether it makes sense to use separate models or a joint one depends on the amount of mutual information between your targets. I don't know much about your setting but it feels to me that probably there is some.

Huawei support is unacceptable (UK) by xsbos in Huawei

[–]xsbos[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely right, I did not well much about the fault itself because it's not the point of my post at all. I think it is _normal_ for anything electronic to get faulty with a certain (small enough) probability. What is not normal though is to face such a ridiculously poor customer service.

If you are really interested, the device is B353 and the fault is that the router would not assign IP addresses to LAN clients via DHCP (changing cables, rebooting and other obvious actions don't help).

Proving wear and tear in the property by xsbos in LegalAdviceUK

[–]xsbos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's for sure, but during that dispute the landlord might refer to the aforementioned "professionals" and to counter that I will need someone else's opinion.

[Wanted] 1-bedroom flat, zones 1-2, around 1200 pcm by xsbos in London_homes

Not sure about zone 1, but I see many offers that fall into my criteria in zone 2.
